What do you want in a new SERG?
« on: July 08, 2008, 09:55:01 PM »

Was asked to help out here with a poll.  So here goes.  The interest seemed to be primarily what new buyers might be looking for.  But the old SERG's look is so iconic most will have an informed opinion.  So here goes...

Was asked to help out here with a poll. . .

So, Willie G. asked the poolboy to ask you what to do with fairing graphics?  Getting kinda close to production for such an important decision! :nervous: :huepfenlol2:

Was an interesting question.  And that add poll button does hide from folks.  So no harm in giving the pool boy a hand.

I voted that it needed changed-updated.  Looks fine from the side but needs a fresh headlight treatment.  Also the interior area around the forks needs cleaned up so all the underside air isn't as turbulent    :nixweiss: ?  What do I know, don't even have one.

I think I'd want a bat wing fairing on my RG with a triple headlight.   :oops:

That's an interesting thought.  That nose seems to be the most divisive visual aspect of the Road Glides.  At least that's been my experience in conversation with others.  But it it very much "Road Glide."  Might be a hard thing for them to change.

The question is what do I want in a new SERG? How about a real warranty, a JIM's 120 or more, a 6 or 7 speed tranny, fricken better brakes (I went to PM for calipers), chrome that does not peel, stainless nuts and bolts (if BMW can do it so can Harley), a frame with no handling surprises, improved stereo system, a wider rear tire, better lighting, improve the suspension, a little more legroom for the 6 plus footers, dump the crash bars. The graphics are still better than the majority of the graphics from the MoCo. A one year (950) production run in black and silver, orange and black, custom white and silver. All for $30K with minor styling changes to fenders, side panels and fairing.

Update the fairing graphics & down the bike graphics - most noticeable, best SE paint jobs from a viz standpoint HD ever did.  Keep that eagle theme going!

Lose the 2 headlights.  1 headlight is plenty. 


For God's sake, find something other than that Harmon Kardon 147 function radio to stick in the hole where a radio is supposed to go.
